The Professor
Chief Cheese Officer

Professor Curdwell

Decades of fieldwork, a formidable collection of waistcoats, and a nose trained on the finest caves and cellars of Europe. The Professor has dedicated his life to the noble pursuit of cheese. His Compendium is the result — a labour of love, ripe with knowledge and only occasionally odorous.
